Formed in February 2023, Oregon’s Arts and Culture caucus is the largest bipartisan caucus in the Legislature. Working with representatives and senators from across the state, the caucus strives to elevate the needs of Oregon’s vibrant arts and culture community. The caucus is co-chaired by Rep. Rob Nosse (D-Portland) and Sen. Dick Anderson (R-Lincoln City).
In May 2025, the caucus came together to issue a bipartisan appeal to their colleagues to fund arts & culture in the state.
